Blog post about sensitive social topic.
Let me explain what is abortion. Just in case if no one knows the meaning of it or not heard of it.
An abortion is a procedure to end a pregnancy.
Pregnant woman who feels that she doesn’t want to have a kid due to her circumstance or being victimised of rape.
There is a lot that I want to say about it despite I don’t often talk about the topic like sensitive topic (abortion). Here is my take.
Personally, I am against abortion but to deny the right for those who want to have abortion including in awful circumstance when woman is being victimised of rape, it is very wrong. I am pro choice. You can be pro choice & still disagree on abortion.
How can the person be “pro life” if they are strongly against abortion but to not allow women to have the right to go to abortion clinic due to circumstances including rape. Abortion is legal.
Why is the topic even being divisive in countries like the United States? American Conservatives (Republicans) opposes abortion & the right to have abortion. They even claim that they are Christians (& evangelicals) & that they want 1973 Supreme Court ruling Roe v. Wade to be overturned. bbc.co.uk Even in Republican states, they outlawed abortion by making it criminalised & does not include an exception of rape. Abortion ban to deprive women even if she is raped & that GOP politicians made it harder to give access to abortion clinics. That is not right. Not right morally.
There are some Christians who are pro choice despite not all of them are pro choice & it doesn’t matter what the Bible say as there aren’t clear answer about the topic. That’s where it comes into a play. Division regarding those who are pro life and those who are pro choice. Regardless of religion.
Even Northern Ireland when Northern Irish women came to Britain to have access to clinics for having the right to abort a unborn baby at the time when abortion was not legal. Coming to England from NI. google.co.uk
Few years ago, Ireland (Republic of Ireland) voted overwhelmingly to overturn the ban on abortion
I understand that it is an sensitive topic. However denying the right to abortion is just violation of human rights. Abortion is a choice.
Next time when woman wants to have abortion because of her circumstances, at least respect her own decision & wishes even you might not like it. After all, abortion is legal here in the UK. Unless you happen to live in the country where abortion is illegal.
Abortion shouldn’t really be a divisive topic at all. The reason why it is a divisive & “controversial” topic is where some people in the minority who doesn’t approve her choice of aborting a unborn child due to her circumstances (& being victim of rape). So let’s us all just acknowledge that we live in the society where is democracy, freedom, tolerance and human rights. Without it, it would had been under the dictatorship.
